Lu Xiao firmly supported Mrs. Su's withered arm. He could feel her sharp, jagged bones through her skin, and a heavy feeling settled in his heart.
"Mom, if you act like this, how can Tangtang and I be at ease?"
"We're all one family here."
Lu Xiao's steady words were like an anchor, settling the unease in Mrs. Su's heart.
Mrs. Su's eyes reddened again, not from sadness, but from relief.
When Mr. Su had first told her he had found a husband for Su Tang, she had actually disagreed.
They only had one daughter, Su Tang, and they had done everything in their power to send her abroad.
It wasn't so she could just get married.
If Mr. Su hadn't explained things clearly to her, there was no way Mrs. Su could have borne it.
To put it bluntly, the Lu Family came from humble, rural origins, and Lu Xiao, being in the army, couldn't even come home more than a few times a year.
How could she possibly have agreed?
Looking back now, her perspective had been too short-sighted back then.
